YOU will get cash back from government for the spanish-american war

If your an american of course..

File this under "wierd fucked up tidbit of useless info"


This year you will be getting a $$ payment from the government on your taxes.

You know those extra taxes on your long distance telephone bill ? they usually have some funky name for them that doesnt make much sense.

Turns out theres one called the "federal excise tax" that was illegally being charged for the last 100 years to pay for the war of 1892.

The statute of limitations for federal cases like this is like 3 years or something so you will only get 3 years worth of it back , and you dont even currently have to have a phone , you just have to sign a thing saying you paid long distance taxes at some point.
